Hong Kong shares fall, in line with others, as oil prices drop

April 18 (Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks tracked regional
markets lower on Monday, with risk appetites reduced by a tumble
in crude oil futures after exporters failed to reach agreement
on production cuts.

The Hang Seng index fell 0.7 percent, to 21,161.50,
while the China Enterprises Index lost 1.3 percent, to
9,090.85 points.

Energy shares led main indexes lower, as oil prices
fell sharply in response to disappointing results from
the weekend meeting.

Some 18 oil exporting nations gathered in Doha, Qatar, in an
attempt to agree on stabilising output at January levels until
October 2016. The deal fell apart after Saudi Arabia demanded
that Iran join in.
